“We are extremely happy with Suzanne’s care❤️, I was able to board my dog-tofu for 6 days to Suzanne for our little vacation. I felt like my dog was also at the vacation and enjoying his time away from us. We really appreciate this boarding experience. Her dogs are all well behaved and sweet. Even though my dog is not used to other people and dogs, he did not stop playing at Suzanne’s house. Thank you so much for everything ❤️❤️❤️”


“Kyle was great! He kept his word regarding caring for our 2 dogs on a holiday weekend. He evaluated for a good fit prior to committing just as we did for a sitter. He was not only comfortable with my very large dog but, understood their behaviors. He provided updates and was extremely easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend.”


“Christina was absolutely wonderful with my Hughie! She sent me pictures and videos every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Hughie looked so happy, relaxed, and playful—he even made some new doggy friends during his stay! It was clear that he was treated like part of the family and really enjoyed himself. I highly recommend Christina and will definitely be booking with her again.”


“Lily took wonderful care of my dog Pippa! It was my first time working with her and I will definitely use her again. Pippa is a very playful dog and Lily kept her entertained and engaged the whole time. I think Pippa was very bummed to come back home and leave her new friends. Thanks Lily!!”


“Dana took excellent care of my dog Milo while we were away! She sent pictures and frequent updates. She was easy to communicate with and catered to all of my dog’s needs. I felt very comfortable and will definitely use Dana again for future stays. I highly recommend her!”



“Isabel was great! Excellent communication before and during stay, with lots of pics. She was very patient with our older, anxious dog. Excellent physical space with lots of room to play safely. Would absolutely recommend Isabel.”


“Stefanie was great with my dog Daisy! I was happy to receive daily updates and Daisy looked like she was having a great time :) she even made a cat friend! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her for a long weekend.”


“Nicole was fantastic! Highly recommend! She kept us up to date with pictures and text messages of how Luna was doing daily. We couldn’t be more pleased with the care she provided. 5 stars!!”


“Rachael is the best dogsitter ever! She always seems to have a house full of dogs (some her own, some sittees), and my dog has a wonderful time and even comes home a little more trained! I cannot recommend her enough -- she is warm and kind and clearly just loves dogs.”


“My dog Toby had a great time with Gwynne. She sent lots of pictures from his stay and he looked like a part of the family. Gwynne will be my first call to watch Toby the next time I go out of town!”


“I cannot say enough good things about Annette. This was our first time leaving our pups with a non family member and Annette made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We got updates with pictures and video which showed how much fun our pups were having! We will definitely be using Annette again!”


“The best with my girl Persephone. She was able to take her in very last minute and was very very flexible. I really appreciate all of her help and the way she was with Persephone during this tough transitional period. Loved all the pictures and videos she sent and I noticed that Persephone became less stressed overtime which I love. Highly recommend Madalys to everyone!”


“Dew was fantastic! Her communication was great, she made sure my dog was comfortable and settled in. She sent status updates throughout his stay. He came home unstressed and in a great mood all happy and healthy. I would highly recomend her to anyone looking for dog care!”


“I just want to start off by saying, never judge anyone’s profile just because they haven’t gotten the opportunity to sit more dogs than others. Gaileen and her family were absolutely amazing. From the first meeting they were nice, understanding , and very welcoming. My Klee Kai Xura felt so happy and safe. Every single step of the way Gaileen sent me photos, daily updates on xura status and behavior and performed her duties as a sitter. I just want to thank them so much for their hospitality and I will definitely book them again soon”


“Very nice experience with Anner. We did a pre-boarding meet and greet with my dog which went well and then a one night boarding. The house has a fenced yard which is safe when letting dogs out. House is very clean and dogs feel at home. There was even another dog there at the same time so they kept each other company.”


“Winnie had a great time with Rachel! Rachel is clearly very experienced with dogs, and I felt very comfortable leaving Winnie with her. She knew exactly how to give Winnie the time she needed to sniff around and feel comfortable in Rachel's environment. It was clear that Rachel gave Winnie a lot of one on one attention. She also took her on a walk at the park. Rachel took the time to debrief me on how Winnie's day went, and seemed to really understand Winnie's personality. Rachel's experience with caring for and training dogs gave me a ton of peace of mind in leaving my precious pup with her.”


“Pretty sure my dog likes Yahaira & Lucky more than us now ? Knox had a blast & Yahaira was very attentive to him. We got daily updates with lots of pictures! We cannot wait to book again ?”



“Howard and Kathy are amazing dog sitters. We left our two peekapoos with them for 22 days. This was the first time we were leaving our dogs for a long time and we were apprehensive. Howard and Kathy kept us updated with emails and pictures. The dogs behaved very well since they returned home. I would recommend Howard and Kathy without any hesitation!”
